New Scan

How to launch a scan using Security Manager Plus ?

As already mentioned in Asset
Scans assets that have been previously discovered can be scanned from the Assets
page itself
using the 'Scan Selected' link, after selecting the desired IP Address /
DNS Name, which takes you to the 'Scan' page.

You can also initiate a New Scan for your network assets by clicking the 'New Scan' link present in the left
hand side of the Scan page, which takes you to the 'New Scan'
page. Fill in the details required for the New
Scan.

In the Scan Name field, enter a descriptive title for this task. This
will appear in the scan report summary and on the Scan Status page for quick identification.

For the Scan Inputs field , do one of the following:

If Host[s] option is selected, then provide list of host names or
IP addresses (separate multiple hosts/IPs with commas) to scan.

If IP Range is selected, then enter IP ranges to scan,
starting from the lowest IP to the highest IP (for example: 192.160.121.0
to 192.160.121.255).

If Asset Group[s] option
is selected, then select the group to be scanned from the list of asset
groups .To select multiple groups, hold the <CTRL> key. The list
will be empty if asset
groups have not been created.

Selecting Notify on Scan Completion option lets Security
Manager Plus send e-mail
notification to the given Email id about the completion of a scan
based on the selected Criteria (as given below in Step 7).
